Congressional Democrats have proposed legislation that would ban new LNG exports. Rep. Ed Markey, D-Mass., who is pushing a ban, said the expert terminals would mean sending U.S. natural gas to China and Europe 00 and “exporting our manufacturing jobs abroad along with the fuel.”
“America should exploit her competitive advantage with lower natural gas prices to create jobs in the United States, not export natural gas to create more profits for oil and gas companies,” Markey said.
They wrap their export objections in the flag, while simultaneously opposing extraction through fracing as dangerous, etc.
Stop exploring, stop producing, stop exporting ... their objective is simply to bring the country to its knees.
